By author Nora Harwit Amrani
(Vantage Press, 1993) is an in-depth, yet easy-to-read analysis and discussion
of the conflict of self-identity faced by contemporary Native Americans as
expressed through the creative spirit of their female poets.

Torn between traditional ways the modern, mechanized world of the white man,
these women seek to hold together, both spiritually and
generatively, the fabric of a culture that is assailed on all
sides.

Spokespeople for the voiceless many, they focus on "continuance, not
extinction." Like Mother Earth, they hold the seeds for
future growth and a renewal of the spirit that will enable their
people to transcend their current conflict and cherish a heritage
that is a rightfully proud one.

Included are the works and examinations of poetry by nila northSun, Joy Harjo, Marcie
Rendon (Awanewquay), Roberta Hill Whiteman, Linda Hogan, Wendy
Rose. This book is a good reference for school papers on women,
poetry, American Indians, oral tradition, literature, psychology
and has already been a resource and quoted in papers at high school and university levels.
